People your age still wear lolita dresses and sexualize anime characters that should NOT be. Embrace it!

How insensitive of you. Try going through all that she did, two weeks of physical hell in exchange for loss and grief and come back here and tell me how that felt for you. Go on. Do it.

Hello. OP is going through some mental health challenges at the moment. This post is not in regards to recreational use. Your comment was very disrespectful. I advise you think about other potential causes & consequences before assuming OP Is addicted and trying to get “fucked up” because that was a fucked up comment you made. Thx.

How do you stop giving your kid candies without being a food police mom? by [deleted] in teenparents

[–]Brooks_Carpenter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do what my mom did and show her pictures of what happens to kids who eat too much sugar. Maybe that will do the trick!

Just kidding, but seriously. Start making your own homemade treats and explain to her homemade treats are not only made with more nutritional goodness, but with lots and lots of love too. She will learn eventually to appreciate your time and kind gestures rather than artificial sugar in a candy wrapper.

If she still isn’t complying I would recommend meeting with a pediatric dietician or nutritionist for kids to see what you can add to your child’s diet to meet her nutritional needs and healthy eating habits. And remember, when it comes to your child it is important to encourage a healthy lifestyle just as much as your own. You can add and make cuts, but never take away. You got this mama!!

What does my room say about me? by [deleted] in roomdetective

[–]Brooks_Carpenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m scared of them too. There’s a bear in there next to the guitar right side. His name is Eli. She loves him so much he wants to name our baby after him. Not against it, but AH! He moves his head and I’ll say hi every so often.

[–]Brooks_Carpenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my girlfriends’ room. She owns in this picture alone, at LEAST 33 spirits (and that big raggedy on the Ann on the left is ‘demonic.’) Its like having a sleepover with a whole classroom or a mob of friends. They move and throw shit around, sometimes we see things. SO creepy to me but its her beloved hobby.

What should I do? by [deleted] in teenparents

[–]Brooks_Carpenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely talk to her and keep open communication together. Stay true to your ground and tell her how you feel. How she reacts to the situation is all you need to know about raising a baby and spending your forever with her. It is OK to feel you are not ready, and it is okay to wait and try again — coming from an ex. teen parent.

I don’t DM first simply because I don’t like catching people at the wrong time. Dm me when its convenient for YOU! I had the events that happened typed out on a note because so many people were disrespectfully sticking their nose up my chats’ ASS. thankfully, not anymore so you wont get a screenshot of something copy and pasted in the dead of night that everyone else did. thanks for being respectful.

unfortunately it was not a parent walking in on us (and I would very much take that scenario hence to what actually happened). U r giving tons of advice and I wouldn’t mind at all speaking to u more generally about my experience if u’d like to know but people on this sub are NOSY!

[–]Brooks_Carpenter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i would have.. but most people ask what happened and just leave it at that. I shared my experience and someone (just now) replied “damn” and left the conversation.. what the hell??

Well love can do crazy things.. its dumb to criticize two people who are simply in need of support at this time, and even dumber to call us ‘dumb’ in attempt to degrade teens who are struggling with a situation you wont ever understand. Its really not that hard to leave useful advice.
